Surprised nobody has sussed the fact then when you have a more attacking minded manager , you will inevitably concede more goals . Despite the possession , we will be countered.
All our fans moan about how we don’t have a go at teams. They moaned when we had pulis , karanka , mclaren , Warnock etc that we’re too defensive minded . If you look throughout our history , our most successful periods were when we had defensive minded managers .
We’re not big or rich enough to go out and dominate teams and win like city or Liverpool.
Defensive managers
Karanka ….. promoted
McLaren …… a cup and strong stints in the premier league
Pulis ……. Actually got us a playoff position
More Attack minded managers
Monk …….**** all
Robson …… cup finals but ultimately a relegation and nothing won
Wilder ……. Most likely **** all too
Woodgate …… we’ll utter **** and should never have been given a chance . Didn’t realise pleasing the fans by attacking more would cause us conceding **** loads of goals
